Helen was still so welcoming even after we 4 strangers popped in without an appointment. To top it off, we were all new to the process of pottery painting. Helen was so patient and helpful that it made all the difference in the world. And don't get me started on the value....it is so inexpensive! There is no way that she is running this place with any profit. It's clearly a labor of love for her! We had a fantastic experience and were grateful that Helen was so accommodating. She also hosts Paint Nites so we will definitely schedule that in the future with her! She's a gem and Benicia (and the surrounding areas) is lucky to have her!!!

We recently attended a sip and paint event, and the staff was kind enough to offer us free studio time when we couldn't complete our projects that night. My wife often brings friends, and they can spend hours painting without any issues. I'm surprise they haven't gotten kick out. The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive; they're always quick to provide more paint or offer helpful tips. The studio is clean and well-organized, with a vast selection of art pieces to choose from, although the prices can be a bit high. Overall, I highly recommend Color Me Mine and will definitely be returning.

I mentioned to the lovely girl at the front it was our first time there and she took her time explaining the stations, the different items to paint, the paints and seating in great detail. I wasn't afraid to ask further questions and never felt rushed. Price was really good too for the quality of the products. They do have plenty of seating and even saw them help set up a party upstairs. Out pottery wasn't ready in the one week that was promised, but when I called to inquire about it they let us know they had to refire a plate my sister made to ensure it was food safe so I really appreciate the attention to detail!

I honestly cannot believe I had never heard of this place before, especially living here in Fremont. The studio is adorable, clean, and very well set up for kids' activities and parties. They offer a lot of fun options, and for our party we chose pottery and slime, which was a huge hit. The full 3 hours went incredibly smoothly. We had a private room for the kids to do their activities, enjoy pizza, and have cake, and everything felt easy and well organized from start to finish. The staff was wonderful and made the whole experience feel seamless. We will definitely be back with our kids.

After waiting for a while an associate comes out and roughly explains what the process is and disappears again- fine by me but I know a fist timer would be pretty confused. The color selection is very poor. They have a row of colors just plain colors, much less than what I've seen other places. The pottery options are also pretty lackluster and pricey for what they are. The positive part of this rating goes to the lovely associate that helped us the first time. She was lovely and kind, but my overall frustration that led me to this overall rating was picking up my pottery today. Again was not very fully and I see a line of people at the front. Cool I get it. But the associate had not a single sense of urgency in her. She just slowwwwwwly walked to the back looked around slowwwwly came back. Once it was my turn she didn't even ask why I was here just stared at me so I told her I was picking up and she asks for a picture of the item..? Wtf? Not even a name phone number or email that they require when dropping off my items but a picture? I had to scroll and find them. Once I show her she's like..ok when were you here? Geez do you want my outfit details that day too? How ridiculous. They need a better sorting system I saw her looking around and several pieces. Then she sloooowwlly comes over to me and dumps my plates on a table nearby and some crumpled bags next to it and just says "ok you can look at them" and leaves to the back again. Frustrated I get my pieces and dip. I don't know if it's because I've been to muuuuch better where they also treat me better. But this place was such a let down. Also picky side note the music they put sucks.

We ended up having to wait around 20 minutes before a table freed up so I definitely suggest calling ahead to make a reservation! The owner of this business was incredibly nice. She took time to explain the glazes and how the process of painting our pieces worked. There is a flat fee of $15/person and you get unlimited time in the studio to paint your pieces. There was a wide range of glazes available for you to paint with. My only gripe was the condition the paintbrushes were in.. I was not able to find a brush for finer details and most of the paintbrushes were old with fraying brushes. The total price depends on the piece or pieces that you choose to paint. Our total ended up being $65 (you can get a 20% discount if you follow their social media or print a coupon from their website). Overall this was a great experience and I would love to visit again! I will update the photos with the finished pieces once I go pick them up!
